Chapter 18 The Name of Fusu



He didn't miss the look of disgust and sarcasm in Zhou Jia's eyes when she mentioned Jin. This Jin...

The other two parties also had many smart people, and their guesses were similar to Zhuge Liang's, so they were just waiting for Zhou Jia to start speaking.

Comments from various dynasties scrolled rapidly across the screen.

"Everyone, I have my own plans this afternoon, so please vote here first. I know you are all concerned about food, so I will show you a video about food planting and changes in agricultural tools.

However, because the previous dynasties did not have paper, it was very inconvenient for them to record. Therefore, we will first play a documentary about papermaking. The previous dynasties without paper can record the methods and try to make it, and the later dynasties can find ways to improve paper.

Ying Zheng immediately said, "Record everything in detail. Don't miss any details."

Finally, he looked at Li Si who was still kneeling and said, "After I die, Li Si will be buried with me in the imperial mausoleum."

Upon hearing this, Li Si knew that Ying Zheng would not harm his family. Considering what he had done, being buried with the emperor was the best outcome for him. "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ying Zheng looked at Fusu and was silent for a moment. "I will issue an order. Prince Fusu is benevolent, righteous, brave and valiant. From this day forward, he will be crowned Crown Prince. He will succeed me as the Second Emperor of Qin after my death."

Fusu looked up at his father, his eyes reddened, "Fusu, I will definitely live up to your majesty's expectations."

The news of Li Si's burial and Fusu's appointment as crown prince was immediately reported to Zhou Jia by the system. Zhou Jia stopped looking through the documentary and asked in surprise, "Your Majesty, are you appointing Fusu so soon?"

Was she irritated? They had decided on the candidate so quickly, but thinking about His Majesty's sons and daughters, she felt a little understanding.

Ying Zheng seemed to disagree with what she said and immediately asked:

Qin Shi Huangdi: [Do you have any objections?]

Zhou Jia waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no, I don't mind. I have no objection, but..."

She thought about it, stopped and looked at the screen carefully, and stopped looking for the discipline film.

Chinese

Liu Che was the first to lose his temper. "What documentary is that? How did Ying Zheng seduce her away with just one sentence?"

So angry.

Tang

Li Shimin couldn't help but ask, "Is His Majesty so important?"

One sentence could make her abandon them all.

Zhou Jia was completely unaware of their resentment and said:

“Many people in later generations think that Fusu was made stupid by Confucianism, but in my opinion, it is because Your Majesty doted on your children too much, not only Fusu, but also other children as well.

Fusu probably didn't suffer much. Simply put, he didn't suffer the beatings you experienced in your childhood. He was protected too well and looked a little naive. You were right to throw him to Meng Tian to let him gain experience, but there is still a problem.

Fusu is a very kind child. Such a child needs drastic measures, but Meng Tian will definitely take his status into consideration and leave the best things on the border to Fusu. He may be able to see all kinds of life, but he still doesn't have to rush around for a living, doesn't have to work hard every day just to earn a little money, and doesn't have to think about how he will survive tomorrow.

Only when the knife falls on yourself can you truly feel the pain. Anything else, such as seeing or hearing, is useless.

At most, you can give him some money and let him go out and make money on his own. Just have someone watch over him and don't let him die. Don't worry if he gets beaten or starved for a few days. Let him taste the hardships you suffered in the past and temper his character. Reality will tell him that people who are too kind will be ruthlessly bullied by this society.

This is a suggestion, but it is for Your Majesty, and the emperors after you, but it is up to you whether to do it or not."

I don’t know what other emperors felt, but Ying Zheng was really reflecting on whether he was really too pampering these little ones. After thinking about it, he concluded that he was not pampering them at all. He even felt that he had not educated them well. He was too busy and a bit serious on weekdays, so the little ones didn’t dare to get close to him when they saw him.

"Your Majesty, Fusu is willing."

Fusu, who had just stood up, suddenly stood up and knelt on the ground, looking at Ying Zheng firmly.

The father and son's eyes met, and before they could speak, Zhou Jia said:

"I have another question. Why do the historical records show that only Fusu participated in government affairs, while the other princes did not make any moves? I don't know whether it is because His Majesty does not allow you children to participate in government affairs and share power with Fusu, or whether it is because none of you are capable of entering the court?

Then what do you do every day? I don’t understand. Also, Zhao Gao and Hu Hai attacked you. Logically, when they dealt with the first person, you other children should have been alert and tried every means to keep yourselves alive. But what is the reality?

It only records that one Prince Gao committed suicide to protect his family. At least he thought of a way. But the rest of you give us the impression that you did nothing and just stood there waiting for Zhao Gao and Hu Hai to kill you. Are you so naive?

"All the ancestors of your Qin family were cunning, but how come in your generation, except for the vicious Hu Hai, the others seem to be completely innocent? Has the gene mutation been so severe? I feel that Gongzi Gao is the only one who is a little more reliable. How about Your Majesty, can you observe this son?"

As soon as these words were spoken, all of Ying Zheng's children changed their expressions and were speechless, not knowing what to say.

Fusu and Ying Zheng's eyes fell on Prince Gao at the same time.

Gongzi Gaodao: "Father, brother, I..."

Fusu smiled and comforted, "Gao, you did a great job."

At least, braver than him.

"Well done." Ying Zheng also said.

Gongzi Gao felt a little aggrieved, his eyes reddened. "Father, brother, please take care of yourself. Father, I am willing to experience the people's livelihood with you."

The other older ones also stood up and said, "We are willing too."

There were inevitably a few princes among them. Ying Zheng looked at this scene with satisfaction, but the smile on his lips was wiped away by Zhou Jia's words before it could spread.

"So I'm very curious about who's in your harem, Your Majesty. Your genes definitely don't mean you can't produce someone capable of stirring up trouble. Not to mention expanding territory like you, but at least someone who can maintain the status quo. But your children... it's hard to say.

So Your Majesty, please be careful when you recruit concubines. It's okay if one is not good enough, but how can all of them be not good enough? That's too strange."

Ying Zheng's face darkened, and so did the women in his harem, but Zhou Jia didn't say much and focused on Fusu.

"As for whether Fusu can be a good crown prince... there is Fusu in the mountains and Hehua in the marshes. To be honest, before I fell in love with your father Ying Zheng, I actually fell in love with you, Prince Fusu."

Fusu looked up unexpectedly and saw Zhou Jia smiling gently.

"When I first heard the name Ying Zheng, I thought he was very domineering. But I was young at that time and I had a bad impression of him because I knew he burned books and buried scholars alive. But when I first heard the name Fusu, I liked it very much.

Not only me, many people like you because of this name. To this day, I have heard many nice names, but I still think your name is the best. Your name is not only nice, but also contains your father's earnest expectations for you. "
